competition is great gen.
01MH eral stores cannot exist
III nIIIIIvHI simply because no concern
Wv aHsIsN can handle general stock
of goods and compete with
dealers in Special Lines. In the city no dry

dry goods, Every merchant handles his Special
Line This is the reason you can buy goods in
the city, and for the same reason from us,
Cheaper than you can from thegeneral dealer.
For some time past we have made Clothing and

entire capital, time and attention is devoted to
this line only, hence can and will sell you goods
in our line as Cheap as they can be bought in

THE LOUNGE IN THE KITCHEN

One of those mysterious 'housekeepe-s
who are constantly enlightening tire world
about the best way to dust q room or to
spank baby gives this sapient advice:
''Another restful and really economical
thing is to have a lounge in the kitchen
where you can lie down easily. With twen-
ty minutes change of position, refreshing
article to read, or nap, you will be sur
prised how you can turn OFF the work af-
terwarl" It's to be hoped the cook or the
maid-of-all-work won't see this, for a
lounge in the kitchen would be such nice
plan for accelerating the work of house,
besides, having conceded that, thexnext re-
quirement must be piano. lf a woman
s'does her own work she can lie down
when or where she pleases while waiting
for the dinner to cook, but the chances
would be that the dinner would be ruined.
There is no economy in that, surely Peo-
pie who can't sit up 'during business
hours" are to be pitied, but don't let them
advocate IA lounge as a remedy, because
it is a clumsy piece Of furniture that weuld
be awfnlly in the way of the pots and paas.

DREAMS.

Ina dream, in vision Of the night, when
deep sleep faileth upon men, ia slumbering-
upon Inc bed: then he openeth the ears OF
men, and sealcth their instruction, tfat he
may Withdraw man from lis purpose. and
hide pride from man He lSeepeth back his
soul from The pit, and hi life from peri-hiHg
by lie sw ord.-Iob Nxxiif ISIS
To deny all dreams, or visions Of the
night, because there are many vain
dreams, would be nearly as much wisdom
as TO deny the Bible, because there are
many foolish books -. Many warnings
in this way have come from God, and the
impression they made and the good effect
produced were the proofs Of their Divine
origin. To deny this would be to call into
doubt the testimony of the best, wisest.
and hottest men in all ages Of the church
-. BY taking the warning thus given,
some have been prevented from perishing
by the pit--some sudden accident; and
Others from the sword of the assassin. or
nocturnal murderer. 1t would be easy 10
give examples, numerous examples in all
these kinds.-Df. 1dam CLARKE
Captain Yount, of California, in mid
winters night. had dream. in which he
saw what appeared to be company Of
cmigrants arrested by the SHOWS Of the
mountains and perlshing rapidly by cold
and hunger lie noted the very cast of
the scenery, marked by huge perpendie-
ular front of white rock cliff; lie saw the
men cutting off what appeared to be tree
tops rising out of deep CULTS Of snow; he
distinguished the very features of the per-
sons, and the look of their peculiar dis
tress. He woke, profoundly impressed
with the distinctness and apparent reality
of his dream. At length he fell asleep and
dreamed exactly the same dream again. In
the morning he could not expel it from his
mind. Failing in, shortly, with an old
hunter comrade. he told him the story. and
was only the more deeply impressed by
his recognizing, without hesitation. the
scenery of the dream. This comrade came
over the Sierra by the Carson Valley Pass
Gin California; and declared that spot in
the Pass answered exactly TO his descrip-
tion. by this the unsophiscated patriarch
was decided. He Immediately collected
company of men with mules and BLANKETS,
and all necessary provisions. The leigh
bors were laughing, meantime, at his ere
dulity mo matter, said he, Il am able
to do this, and | will: for verify believe
that the fact is according to my dream.
The men were sent into the mountains $50
miles distant, directly to the Carson Val
ley Pass; and there they found the com
pany in exactly the condition of the
dream, and brought in the remnant alive.
